Why does Gog need to use google Captcha bot in the log in for our accounts and also to get tech suport??

i use my hosts file that blocks over 3000 bad sites and adsense and most of the lame google stuff their servers will tag us and ping ip for hours,

i was unable to log into my account and use tech suport here till i del my hosts file this is lame why do we need it?

when you block their lame ip for google you cant see the lame box and their js script will not run making us blocked from our accounts,,,

so only way to use gog now is to let google track me all night and remove my host file or edit to let google acces me..

For anyone else who cant log in here you have to edit hosts file or del it and then restore it to get it back after leaving this site now so google.com server sends you their lame captra js script to download and run in our browser ,
or you will be locked outa your account and cant use the tech suport windows here,,

because all you will see is ---> Invalid captcha

come on gog we here to buy games and play them not be a victim of google servers and their adsense Pings on our ip all night ......................

Gog team block google in your hosts and watch how you block your users from their accounts and why not remove lame captra we never needed it since day one anyway i am not a lame bot and don't need to prove it to buy a game :(

Oh there's so much wrong in this. I could waste an hour or two on a rebuttal.

There's at least seven recent threads about security and hacking. If you don't think that's important, well that's on you.

If you're only "bad sites" for "pinging" and "lag", you're missing a large portion of what's happening out there.

3K? We average 6 million blocked connections every day at our server firewalls. I'll pull the latest "never again" blocked count including ranges later today if you want but I'm sure there's at least 3 more zeros on that count.

Hosts blocks are worthless anyway. Most of these folks have a very much larger range of compromised servers at their command. They just move onto the next machine.

edit: Oh and if you're blocking google in your host file, that's on you.

reedit: Oh and this is the thread you're looking for:

https://www.gog.com/forum/general/conditions_for_2step_authentication_kicking_in

If you're going to come onto a forum sprouting this and pretending you know what you're doing, at least pretend you know how to use a web forum.

hi drmike

see you posted and yea i know that the sites i block love ad tracking js scripts are a pain and ad dynamics and ect like aws and google love to use them if you watch your ip conections you will find when they get their scripts in us they hit us all night google does this on all their servers from google dynamics to adsense etc...

when they get on you they will ping you like up to 10 servers some 8 min some longer, this server been here for years ading the captra js window will not be seen by many 3rd party ad blockers so that box which is java scripted wont show,,

they got that box in all the stuff here now making this a dead site to anyone who blocks ad tracking sites and you may love google but many dont...

anyway i posted for a admin to see here didnt mean to get fellow gamers on me if you block adservers and use this site now you cant see it in some cases i been fighting dynamic tracking for 25 years now i remenebr when it was a crime as in gator ad servers the ceo went to prison today its legal but as a we dont know we cant block state,,

many people perfer not to be a ad dynamic and have their pc tracked all night and some dont care and some have no ideal how the ad companys and big data tracking them on celll phones and pcs at home its who cares what after all,,,

im here to play old games drm free to me ad tracking as bad as drm but wait i forgot we dont own games now we just lic them lol...

anyway nice meeting you and this really was post for admins not to make a statement i spent 3 nights missing the sale cause they added this captra crap and decided to open pc to be here which i really think is wrong ,, google is not gog unless they partnered etc....
